Bradley Walsh was back on our screens for Monday night's instalment of The Chase, where Gary from Hull, Sarah from Clitheroe, Ailsa from Fife and George from London battled it out for some cash against the chaser.
And things looked promising for the team, as manufacturing scheduler Gary got a respectable £6,000 back to the table. He was also joined by funeral celebrant Sarah who had her sights set on a new wardrobe for Australia when she added a healthy £7,000.
Next up to face tonight's chaser, Darragh Ennis (The Menace), was Scots contestant and strawberry farmer Ailsa who scrambled to pick up £4,000 in her cash builder round, but she stunned everyone when she went against the group's advice and went for the £44,000 high offer.
She stormed through the round and delighted her team as they added the eye-watering amount to the prize pot, as The Menace told her: "You deserve that with the bravery of going for it."
But fans of the ITV quiz show were left fuming when the last contestant George stepped up as the 23-year-old supermarket worker went for the lower offer and deducted £9,000 from their collected winnings to get in with a chance of walking away with some of the cash.
Despite going for the notoriously lower offer, George had scored a respectable £7,000 in the cash-building round, which baffled viewers even more at why he decided to aim low.
Although things got off to a bitter start, his teammates seemed to be happy enough to get him back for the final chase and things looked promising.
However all four players were caught out in the final chase with 13 seconds to spare, something which the chaser himself admitted he "didn't see coming" and put it down to the team "answering questions too slowly" at the final hurdles.

What a night it was for Harrison Ford yesterday, receiving an honorary Palme d’Or and a special tribute to his career before the world premiere of “Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny.” Did James Mangold‘s take on the legendary franchise live up to the proceedings? Well, the reviews from the premiere (including The Playlist’s) are pretty mixed. But many note Ford’s performance as a major highlight, so at least the actor gives his most popular movie character a proper send-off.

It was a great night for Disney as Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny had a smash debut in its World Premiere Thursday evening at the Cannes Film Festival where the June 30th release received a warm 5 minute standing ovation, especially for Harrison Ford in his swan song in the title role he started playing 40 + years ago. There noticeably to witness the French love and affection was none other than Disney boss Bob Iger attending his first-ever Cannes Festival (believe it or not) and even taking his own photos during the ovation for the movie. At the Carlton Beach after party I told him Deadline had just been the first to post its review, a rave (from our colleague Stephanie Bunbury) and you could see the absolute relief on his face. “You have made me very happy to hear that, ” he told me, and he meant it. All this came on the same day Disney took another shot at Florida Governor Ron DeSantis by announcing the cancellation of a plan to move several thousand California employees to Florida. The Cannes respite must have been nice.
